For modelling purpose I am interested in literature/data on
biomass distribution in shrub and tree species. I am specially
interested in the following species:
 - broadleaved trees; Acer pseudoplatanus, Betula pendula,
   Betula pubescens, Fagus sylvatica, Populus alba, Populus
   canescens, Populus nigra, Populus tremula, Quercus petraea,
   Quercus robur, Quercus rubra
 - coniferous trees; Pinus sylvestris, Pinus nigra, Pseudotsuga
   menziesii
 - shrubs; Crataegus monogyna, Crataegus laevigata, Euonymus
   europaeus, Frangula alnus (Rhamnus frangula), Prunus padus,
   Prunus serotina, Sorbus aucuparia

I welcome any reference to data on the amount of shoot biomass
differentiated into leaves/needles, branches and stem and/or
the amount of root biomass. Both at the level of the individual
shrub or tree as well as on stand level. So far I have references
mentioned in the work by Cannell (1982), data on Pinus sylvestris
published by Chroust (1985) and Vyskot (1983) and data on Fagus
sylvatica published by Hochbichler et al (1994) and Pellinen (1986).
